too dark to cook :-)

hahahaha, as if i didn't have enough excuses to NOT cook, now i have another one to add to my list.....our kitchen light fixture came crashing down yesterday afternoon! well, not exactly CRASHING, but it was hanging precariously for awhile. unfortunately chris was at work while i panicked about the light fixture, so i called roger and asked him to help me out :-) luckily he was home, and he came over and managed to unwire the fixture and brought it safely down. thanks rog! turns out that the screws holding the light up had actually snapped off and fractured, so the lights were only hanging on by 3 wires :P in my panick, i also called my dad and he covered the loose wires with electrical tape :-) fortunately we're still covered under the warranty, so i'm going to call the developer tomorrow and tell them to get their butt in gear and fix my freaking lights!

after looking at the the ceiling, we think that they might have tried to install it once, but then it didn't work, so they drilled more holes. i'm sure that didn't cause it to fall down, but seriously, they should've patched up the first holes anyways (see the bottom picture - 4 holes).....there were only 2 screws holding up the fixture in the first place.
